Cozy Celebrations Gameplay Discussion Thread (Ends Today Jan 10)

Congratulations to Sidney on becoming Prom King! 🙂

Right, I just got a huge batch of quests done for Kevin. And Marcel, he teamed up to make the Coquito. Still running into an issue of tasks-related-to-the-computer-and-computer-research dropping. Notably, this was always assured if I went to school with the teens. Most of the time, I managed to catch and reload when this happened, but one time, I forgot and just saved so I was forced to roll up a new sim in a new file to go and research about holidays. At least I have that workaround.

Also still have a bug of tasks disappearing if I travel too much off lot. Which, pain! I like traveling and getting out of the house on occasion! -sigh-

I'm also not finding much for Kevin to latch onto narratively compared to say, Alexander getting into gardening last time. Sure, there's food and some family bonding happening, but it's hard to feel this might alter Kevin's desires and growth in anyway.

That being said, here's some family bonding!

Also Sidney won prom king and I am pleased about that. First time that happened across my save files! The secret to success is perhaps cutting a rug on the dance floor, as that was what I had him do nearly all prom.

His outfit looks great.Your combination of the swatch version of the jacket with the pants complements well 🙂

I meant to post my thoughts on this item. It's not my favorite winter jacket, but it looks better in game than it did in CAS, not as stiff. But the color shades change in different lighting, as happens with a lot of clothes out of CAS. 

I wanted to use the brown swatch version but couldn't find a pair of pants that looked right. All those shades of brown and gold--and that beige stripe down the front!  This was the best I could come up with. 🤔  

The new tv looks lovely on the wall in your living room. It complements well with the other furnishings and room colour. Your sims are having fun playing games on the new console! 🙂The wreaths look very pretty in the garden room. The new slippers are cute! 

I didn't think I'd like this particular TV swatch, but it fit nicely in this room. 

The new console seems to work fine. 

The event wreaths don't function well on doors, so I'm hanging them in the garden room. 

The twinkling lights shine at night. 

We have two different bear slippers in CAS now. The one marked with the Event icon has several different animal swatches, while the lone unmarked bear slippers choice has slimmer soles (and a little darker soles?). 

Omg, that wreath is sooo cute. 😍

I hope that everything turns out okay with SimmingGal and Olive! 🙂

The event is going so fast but I figured I should also mention the 3rd guest
who very much volunteered by stalking behind Simmingals door

Yes. ofcourse it was Mr. Layne Coffin (nickname: Don Macabre)

When will you leave me be Mr. Coffin
I swear I do not want to be buried on Olives lawn for your unsolicited flirts

Oh well since he is here (again) Simmingal asked about his traditions

and interestingly enough we are still getting new replies
so I shall think there is at least 5 options for answers to this question

Well, that was nice to know now would you go home and tango with your wife please
so I don't have to become ingredient in her Pufferfish Nigiri recipe, yes thank you.

Uh oh. Too late.

The freezer bunny wreath is sweet! 🙂
